Ingredients

Seasoned Pita Chips

  • 6 pitas
  • 3 Tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

White Bean Dip

  • 1 can cannellini beans drained and rinsed
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic peeled
  • 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2-3 large Sage leaves
  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 Tablespoons olive oil
  • Dash Cayenne Pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Cut each pita into 8 equal wedges and brush both sides with olive oil. Place them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  • Season the pita wedges with salt and pepper.
  • Bake for 5-6 minutes before turning each wedge. Bake an additional 5-6 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  • Add the cannellini beans, fresh garlic, lemon juice, sage leaves, and olive oil to the food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Pour the bean mixture into a serving bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Just before serving, add a dash of cayenne pepper and a drizzle of high-quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Serve with seasoned pita chips and/or your favorite sliced vegetables for dipping!

Notes

Although you can use any old olive oil in the recipe, I highly recommend using a high-quality variety at least for the drizzle for the extra pop of flavor.
A little bit of sage goes a long way! If you aren't sure how much to use, start with a small amount, taste it, and add more if desired.
